An interesting move, which players of the Black pieces have been trying
to make work for some time. Declining in popularity is 4 ... c6 5 Nf3 Bg4 6
Be3 Qb6 7 Qd2 Bxf3 8 gxf3, as White's space advantage is usually more critical
than his weakened pawn structure. The other 4th move for Black is simply 4 ...
Nf6, transposing into the main lines of the Austrian.
